Answer:
55 Remainder of a 3
Step-by-step explanation:
223 = dividend
4 = divisor
Step 1:
Start by setting it up with the divisor 4 on the left side and the dividend 223 on the right side.
Step 2:
The divisor (4) goes into the first digit of the dividend (2), 0 time(s). Therefore, put 0 on top
Step 3:
Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (4 x 0 = 0) and write that answer below the dividend.
Step 4:
Subtract the result in the previous step from the first digit of the dividend (2 - 0 = 2) and write the answer below.
Step 5:
Move down the 2nd digit of the dividend (2)
Step 6:
The divisor (4) goes into the bottom number (22), 5 time(s). Therefore, put 5 on top
Step 7:
Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (4 x 5 = 20) and write that answer at the bottom
Step 8:
Subtract the result in the previous step from the number written above it. (22 - 20 = 2) and write the answer at the bottom.
Step 9:
Move down the last digit of the dividend (3)
Step 10:
The divisor (4) goes into the bottom number (23), 5 time(s). Therefore put 5 on top
Step 11:
Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (4 x 5 = 20) and write the answer at the bottom
Step 12:
Subtract the result in the previous step from the number written above it. (23 - 20 = 3) and write the answer at the bottom.
You are done, because there are no more digits to move down from the dividend.
The answer is the top number and the remainder is the bottom number.
Therefore, the answer to 223 divided by 4 calculated using Long Division is 55 with a remainder of 3.
